I’m YOB’s cofounder and editor, and I also host our two podcasts. I’ve written a couple books as Thomas Mark Zuniga, including a 2013 memoir in which I first came out. Once upon another universe I anonymously blogged about my faith and sexuality under the Xanga username, twoBeckonings. I’m an INFJ, Enneagram 4w5, and my spirit animal is the buffalo. I love to travel, and my favorite place in the world is the one where coffee and vulnerability meet. When I’m not wandering, I live in Asheville, North Carolina – the Jewel of the Blue Ridge.
This is refreshing to hear someone talk about positivity. Because of my struggles with same sex attraction I don’t think positivity would be an attribute of mine. Perhaps one day I can have some positivity in me.
Positivity absolutely can be contagious. I’ve felt the infection spread in my own life when I’m intentional with positive people. I hope the fever spreads to you, brother!
